Description
By November, the forest has shifted into survival mode—and Moose Hill is the perfect place to explore how. Walk through the sanctuary's trails to look for the quiet adaptations that keep animals and plants alive through the cold: thick bark, seed caches, leaf litter as insulation, and more.
Discover how different species—from the red squirrel to the dormant oak—make it through winter, and why these strategies matter for the whole ecosystem. Back inside, the trail inspires our creation of a winter adaptation-themed craft to take home.
